When we heard that RNC Chairman Reince Priebus was set to announce a new set of principles that Republicans across the country could rally around, the initial thought was that it couldn't be worse than the Autopsy Report that the Party released shortly after the 2012 presidential elections. Back then, Priebus and the Party called on Republicans to embrace "comprehensive immigration reform" eventually leading to the bipartisan, but, thus-far, failed Gang of Eight amnesty bill. Instead, Priebus' speech indicated that Washington could be hearing the message about the impact of mass immigration on American workers.

An audience member asked a great question: How would the candidates ensure that Americans are first in line for jobs? But the CNN moderator ignored the jobs issue and turned it into a question only about amnesty.

For whatever reasons Iowa Republicans are getting excited about Sen. Santorum, it is a good bet that it isn't because of his immigration-issues profile -- which they likely know little about. Typically this past year, Republican voters have pushed a new presidential candidate high up the polls before taking a good look at the immigration record/platform of that candidate. Each time, NumbersUSA has provided an in-depth look at that candidate's immigration positions (and our analysis has tended to be the most widely used). It is now Santorum's turn as he surges in the Iowa polls just days before that state's first-in-the-nation caucuses.

At NumbersUSA we believe that the numerical level of immigration should
be set in ways that: allow for a stabilizing U.S. population; allow for

The mainstream news media is filled with awe that Newt Gingrich showed some "compassion" for illegal aliens in last night's GOP presidential debate. A look at his record while in Congress shows this is nothing new. In fact, his leadership was one of the reasons we have illegal aliens who have been able to stay in this country for 25 years. Take a look . . .

Eight GOP Presidential Hopefuls participated in Thursday night’s debate
in Ames, Iowa, but only five were asked about immigration. And none of
the candidates brought up the issue on their own. Herman Cain had the
strongest response in dealing with illegal immigration, while the
frontrunner Mitt Romney was finally asked the question we’ve all been
begging to hear.

The Kansas State House has repealed an existing law that allows illegal aliens to receive in-state tuition rates at public institutions of higher learning. Current Kansas law allows illegal aliens who attended a Kansas high school for at least three years and graduated to receive the tuition benefit. The bill to reverse that law passed 69-to-49.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
